What point of sale means

Point of sale, often shortened to POS, refers to the system that processes a sale at the time and place it happens. In leisure venues, point of sale handles casual entry, retail, food and beverage and program payments.

A good point of sale ties a transaction back to the customer and the venue, so the sale is part of the operational record rather than a standalone till.
